DeepVATS: Deep Visual Analytics for Time Series
The field of Deep Visual Analytics (DVA) has recently arisen from the idea of developing Visual Interactive Systems supported by deep learning techniques, in order to provide them with large-scale data processing capabilities and to unify their implementation across different data modalities and domains of application. In this paper we present DeepVATS, an open-source tool that brings the field of DVA into time series data. DeepVATS trains, in a self-supervised way, a masked time series autoencoder that reconstructs patches of a time series, and projects the knowledge contained in the embeddings of that model in an interactive plot, from which time series patterns and anomalies emerge and can be easily spotted. The tool has been tested on both synthetic and real datasets, and its code is publicly available on https://github.com/vrodriguezf/deepvats
